Homemade Energy Bars

This recipe came directly from Eating Rules which got it from Krista and Jeff Roche of Rambling Roches.

They are delicious!

Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
• ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• ½ cup peanut or almond butter
• ½ cup chocolate chips
• 8 medjool dates (pitted)
• 1 tablespoon ground chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal

Instructions

1. Place all ingredients in a food processor. (Oh, the irony of October Unprocessed!)
2. Mix thoroughly.
3. Roll into balls.
4. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

1. Make sure all of your ingredients pass the Kitchen Test. Not all nut butters pass. For the chocolate chips, we use Enjoy Life.
2. Use organic ingredients if you can. 
3. We prefer Bob’s Red Mill for the oats and flax.
